the fair!


we ventured out to the western idaho fair last night with the family. it was sulli's first time on the fair rides and he had a blast. granted he wanted evan to be on most of them with him (which i don't think that evan minded one bit) he still did great. he drove a jeep, rode on a crazy caterpillar, rode a dragon roller coaster (not pictured) and for the grand finale...the ferris wheel! we also hit the petting zoo which included a chance to milk a cow. evan and i were able to experience our favorite part of the fair...the food! the evenings meal included one pronto pup, one plate of yakisoba noodles with veggies and chicken, one butterscotch snow cone, churros for evan, mini donuts for me, and a peach smoothie. it was delicious as always. super expensive for one evening in the scorching heat. but one time a year, we can justify paying a fortune to eat crap! and as expected, my favorite part was seeing the joy on sulli's face while riding the rides. i get to experience childhood again by watching my children. it is an amazing blessing!
